~ Out of 1872 bills vetoed by President
Cleveland during the recent session of Con-
gress only two were passed Notwithstanding
the objections of the Executive. And with
respect to one of these, final action was
taken with the concurrence of the President
in consequence of later information received
by him. The tribute to the care and justice
with which President Cleveland considers
acts of Congress is striking one. gs-

80 The exact difference between the
Democratic and Republican parties was
measured by the contrast between the House
and the Senate Of the forty ninth Congress.
The House was economical; the Senate prof
ligate. To every appropriation (which the
House made, the Senate added recklessly. It
added to the Naval bill $13,0O0O00; to the
River AND Harbor bill $3,5o0,O0O; to the Sun
day Civil bill $2,6O0,000, and so on, to all the
other bills appropriating money. 1t also
sent the House an Educational bill calling
for $60,OOO,O0O and Jingo bills for national
defense aggregating some $5O,OOO,0OO. Be-
sides, the corporation Senators managed to
defeat several land forfeiture bills from the
House, and the bill repeating the pre-emp-
ton, desert and culture land acts, through
which the cattle kings and alien corporations
have managed to get away with millions of
acres of public lands.

~ A man, giving the name of Frank s..
Thayer, has been travelling through New
Jersey, Pennsylvania, and Ohio, swindling
people by a new and ingenious plan. He re-
presents himself as an agent of Stern Broth
ers' Commission Branch, Sixth Ave-, New
York, and presents his card as such, thereby
creating the impression that he represents
Stern Brothers, the we'll known dry goods
firm of West 23d St., New York. He either
solicits subscription to Gle Moniteur de
Mode" the subscription price to be himself,
or makes contract to send patterns, fancy
goods or cloaks on commission, allowing a
very liberal percentage, generally 40 per
cent. but in every case he collects the cost of
packing and shipping, ranging from six to
ten dollars, at the time of making the agree
ment, for which he gives receipts and agree
ments, signed by himself, as agent for
Stern Brothers. 1t is needless to say that
the papers, patterns, or other goods, never
put in an appearance; and that he has no
connection with the above firm, who never
employ any agents or travellers. When last
heard from he was in Ohio. He is described
as young man with black eyes and hair and
red cheeks, we'll dressed and very gentle
manly, and should be looked after, and ar
rested by the authorities.

Guilty of Murder.

CLARION, August 20-The verdict
of the jury in the Mrs Ella Dins-
more trirl for the murder of Davis is
surprise, being murder in the first
degree. The jury were out l6 hours,
aud rendered their ultimatum sealing
her fate shortly after 8 o'clock this
morning When the foreman pro-
nouuced the wo; ds, I'VE find the acss
cused guilty of murder in the first de-
gree" Mrs Dinsmore never flinched,
did not even change color, and seem
cd u OF to move uscle This not
withstanding that she was all along
confident of acquittll. Her counsel
at once asked for a rue giving them
10 days in which to file reasons for a
new trial This the court granted.
1t is generally believed the applica-
tion for new trial will be granted,
as popular prejudice seems to have
entered largely into the verdict.
IF a new trial is granted said
John W. Reed, Mrs. Dinsmore's
chief counsel, 1--WE shall ask for q
change Of venue, since the court can
not help but perceive from this ver-
diet that the feeling in Clarion coun-
ty agaist Ms d is very strong, and
she cannot get fair trial here"

flames, AID the course of the vessel
was shaped toward Newfoundland,
400 miles distant The flames spread
with great rapidity, aud soon burst

the heat becoming intense

asphalte, s.at great cost. but which is
said to be better aud last longer than

residences to be seen in it than usual

ufactories, axle works, alone employ
ing 900 hands, wire rope works,
wagon, buggy and carriage works,
and, what seemed little strange for
that locality, there is o large lace and
large silk mandatory in the city,
in which all kinds of lace, silk, thread,
ETC., are made. The source of this
great wealth and of most of this
prosperity comes mainly from the
great beds and mines of anthra-
cite coal near the city. These mines
are generally owned by the citizens
and are worked by thousands of
laborers. The coal is the chief in
dustry and produces wealth as well
as increases population.

Murdered her Son.

PARIS. August 20.-There is some-
thing peculiarly shocking in the cir.
cumstances attendant on murder
which has just been committed at Or
anton, in Spain. Years ago, it ap-
pears, young man, who was a native
of that town, emigrated to America
in the hope of making fortune. Hav-
ing TO some extent succeeded in his
object, he returned recently to his
old home, where his aged parents
still resided. Remembering their
age and inGrmities, he was afraid to
reveal his identity to them too abrapt-
ly, for they had had no tidings of
their absent son for long time past,
and possibly thought that he was no
longer living. He went, therefore, to
the old homestead of his youth with
out saying who he was. He saw his
aged father and mother who did not re-
